Since I did not really notice the songs in this show and dont care to listen to them specifically, I dont have a section for my favourite songs. Five, Jae-Joon knew that they survived. Its a rarity and definitely a fortunate turn of role casting for KSR. I think it's about time for them to reveal at least a little what this entire conspiracy is about, because for now, it doesn't make much sense. He mention about paying back his gratitude to Hoon,as he is the only one who knew PM secrets & he knew that Hoon dad was innocent. Thus while I can see this drama worming itself happily in all sort of plot holes, but I don't think it will give us what we want in term of Hoon and Soo-Hyun kisses. That's like drama speak of "you're never getting with the male lead, girl!" Usually dramas reserve the opposites attract, random fall-over skinship, and the walk-in-to-the-bathroom tropes for the lead couple. additionally, soo-hyun better fits jae-joon. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it. He's desperate to save the woman he left behind in North Korea. But Seung-hee, unafraid, convinced Agent Cha to let her meet Hoon. After that, Ill live as Song Jae-hee. I don't think the writers are lost. Even if the writer/director's intention was to make it unclear whether Soohyun or Jae Hee is the real female lead, I felt like Jae Hee was never a viable heroine (not that I think Soohyun is either. If I didn't know better, based on all the skinship moments and her screentime I'd have said she was the female lead of the series. "Dr. Stranger" has also attracted attention for the quality of its cast: Lee Jong Suk, Jin Se Yeon, Park Hae Jin, and Kang Sora play the leading roles while guest roles include Cheon Ho Jin . fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); To me, Jae Hee never really felt like the heroine in the drama. Co-screenwriter Park Jin-woo previously wrote Conspiracy in the Court (2007) and The Kingdom of the Winds (2008). TV-14. I like Kang Sora so much more than Jin Seyeon, and Soo Hyun has been so well written and performed so far. 1. Jin Se Yeon will be playing Song Jae Hee, the first love of Park Hoon whom he met in North Korea, and also play the role of Han Seung Hee, an anesthesiologist that possesses the same face as Song Jae Hee, but holds a mysterious identity. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; Lol! In my over a decade of watching Asian dramas, this is the very first bloody time that I love the 2nd female lead character (Oh Soo Hyun) and hate the first female lead (Jae Hee). I root for Soo Hyun like a lunatic that I want Jae Hee to disappear for good. Watching Hoon wander through his scenes in a constant state of mental breakdown felt like watching someone go through a bad breakupand in that way, those closest to Hoon treated him like he just hadnt come to accept The Truth yet. This gives Jae-joon another chance to butt heads with Hoon as he claims that anything could happen when a patient is as old as Chang-yis mother, though he credits the surgical success to the anesthesiologists excellent preparation. It was a never ending one -upmanship in the hospital and as said by others, the ML and FL (who I was surprised was the FL and not Kang Sora) had zero chemistry. Hoon brushes him off with his usual cavalier attitude, and asks if Jae-joon means he has to steer clear of the quack., Thats when Jae-joon grabs him by the lapels, all but growling into his face that he cant call Soo-hyun a quack. I suspect that her brain will awake when she interacts with Hoon and then her brain will try to fight the chip that controls her. BUT, it's very strange how i didn't feel as inclined for the Angel Eyes pairing of first loves as much as Doctor Stranger. I am shockingly one of those thousands of delusional fans who are shipping Park Hoon and Oh Soo Hyun to end up together. So weird because in my over a decade of watching Kdramas I never shipped a 2nd female lead but DS breaks this record. This is a history in the making! He owns the part of Jae-joon with authority even if I don't like the character for being a user of Soo-hyun. I don't really mind if Hoon ends up with either or neither. Searches were done to search his body pretty soon. Song Jae-Hee, in the small amount of time we saw her, was shown as a vibrant girl and I liked her instantaneously. I didnt like that they made a competition out of important surgeries. If Hoon is happy I'll be happy and if SH is happy and doesn't change ( by the stupid 2nd lead curse) I'll totally be enjoying this Kdrama !!! Well, it turns out that when he was a teenager, his father passed away during surgery due to medical malpractice. Right! I mean, come on. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Do not like her either, not sure why. Instead, it makes my head spins trying to wring out the suspense in every character (except Hoon, SooHyun and Dr Moon and that's why I enjoy them so much) The writer keeps trying to introduce character with huge mysterious plot line then plays the game that feeds me a tiny bit informati22on once a while. My possible answers is Kim Tae Seol (Prime Minister Assistant) is the one who saved Jae Hee & Hoon. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. The big conspiracy has reached the point of being ridiculous, so I'm just going to tune it out as I do with the lack of realistic possibilities in the drama. Her father still had one functioning kidney. Thinking back she was right and I'm glad she didn't watch any more of the drama lolol. or That is not to say that there is already definite proof to confirm that Jae Hee is Seung Hee after all, not quite yet, nor do I believe that Park Hoon will be getting any concrete evidence this early on either.

These days, people are so quick to jump the bandwagon of "first love trope is so overused, why can't he end up with the second lead? Sometimes when leads don't have chemistry, it's fine because the storyline is engaging, but wow dr stranger had a frustrating storyline PLUS Park Hoon and Jae Hee had zero chem.

Do you want to see them on their first date, first kiss, first whatever before believing they are in a relationship? I have a feeling that Jae-hee is truly dead and that they just transplanted her face into another north korean spy - aka Seung-hee. As Song Jae Hee, Jin Se Yeon shows off a bright and pure image of a female student with her long hair, clean school uniform and her fair smile, making people think of the first love image. what about her scene as Jae hee in Budabet at that bridge where she & park hoon were surrounded by men with guns wanted to kill them ? Hopefully I didn't jinx you. And even PH/Jaejoon. this probably sounds terrible, but i think SH/JH got into AMNESIAafter that dreaded fall on the bridge and FORGOT about her past with Hoon. Maybe you will like the Good dr as well. I would love to see stiff competition between Hoon and Jae-joon in the operating table too.

And why in the preview did the how many kidneys thing come up yet again? All to say, at this point I find it hard to ship anyone. It's a good thing there were Dr. Quack & Hoon cute scenes to give my little brain a break, and just when I started feeling torn between Jaejoon and Hoon (for Sohyun), he showed his greedy side and that stopped me from liking him too for Sohyun.

My take is Seung Hee is not Jae Hee. So he asks for a favor, but doesnt tell her what it is ahead of time.

With Hoon-Jae Hee, we see them going from being perfectly strangers to to sharing deeply hidden secrets/feelings. To be fair for JSY and her character(s), Jae Hee is more of a plot device than a fully realized character, and Seung Hee gets held back a lot for the sake of being mysterious.
